Types of Lee’s Summit Personal Injury Claims

Working with a local Lee’s Summit lawyer is a smart choice. Your attorney will be familiar with the local court system and available to conduct investigations and meet with you as needed. The Horn Law Firm, P.C., has offices in Lee’s Summit, and we have represented many clients injured in the area in cases such as:

Car Accidents – Missouri is a fault state. This means that a person who causes a car accident is legally liable for compensating accident victims for all of their losses. These losses include those caused by property damage and personal injuries.

Motorcycle Accidents – The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration(NHTSA) estimates that motorcycle riders are 30 times more likely to die in accidents than drivers or passengers in cars or other vehicles. Motorcyclists are also more likely to be seriously hurt. As with any accident, the driver who is responsible for causing the motorcycle crash should cover all losses.

Truck Accidents – Truck accident claims can be complicated. The driver can be held responsible, but there may also be others to make a claim against, including the trucking company employing the driver who caused the crash. A personal injury lawyer should be consulted to assist you in determining who is to blame and to pursue a claim on your behalf.

Injuries to Children – When children are hurt, it can be especially devastating since they will have to cope with their injuries for the rest of their lives. You need to have compensation to provide them with the help they need for as long as they need it.

Wrongful Death – Close family members whose loved ones are killed in accidents can pursue wrongful death claims to cover losses incurred before death (such as medical bills) and to obtain compensation for loss of companionship and a lifetime of lost earnings.

These and other cases can be resolved through negotiating an out-of-court settlement or through pursuing a claim in court. Cases must be handled in the local area where the injury occurred. A local Lee’s Summit lawyer can help you to take advantage of the legal protections available to you.
